Das Tal's Two Week Summer Alpha Will Begin July 16th
Fairytale Distillery announced today that Das Tal's Summer Alpha will begin on July 16th. The Alpha will run for two weeks and will run on a server based in Europe. Clan invites will be first come, first serve, but any solo player that signs up by June 15th will be guaranteed access to the Summer Alpha.
Here are some of the new features being developed for the Summer Alpha.
- We are going to release the Spear/Shield-based Phalanx weapon set that will combine mid-range melee attacks with a host of crowd control and abilities.
- A brand-new world map that is 3x as large as the old alpha map. Featuring three biomes: the desert, the mountains and the brand new poison swamps.
- Player settlements will now come in different sizes and will have a host of new buildings available.
- We are going to release our first proper Tutorial to allow new players to try out the basic controls, combat and character development before jumping into the high-octane PvP world of the valley.
- We’ll introduce the first version of our solo player Challenge system that will allow you to unlock new titles, avatars, skins and other visual rewards for your character by solving a host of different daily, weekly and monthly challenges.
Additionally, during the Summer Alpha, clans will have a chance to win Nomad Packs, giving them full access to the game post-launch for free. They will be ranked in Efficiency, Elegance, and Respect. Solo players can also win based on Respect. You can see how these variables are calculated here.
